Produced and Directed by Paul Omoruyi, Written by Abiola Omolokun, it features Lolade Badmus, Hannah Ojo and Eric Obinna.
Watch the Short Film Below:

Iconic Rap Queen, Blaise is BACK...with 'WICKED' words for Orlando Julius's Classic, 'OSIKA'. She returns to the music game as a rapper AND music producer in classic style as she features the Legendary Orlando Julius in her double remake of his classic tune 'Osaka Ranti' producing and performing a rap version in her inimitable fashion and throwing in a dance version just for pure classic entertainment.
'Osika' a yoruba word which means 'The Wicked' or 'Wicked Person' is Blaise's first release in 3 years. It's a fusion piece of hip-hop/rap/afrobeat/afro-funk and Naijapop. Lyrically, Blaise leans more towards social consciousness and the track is not any different. She highlights certain current social circumstances and wraps around it a musical atmosphere which lightheartedly dilutes the intensity of the subject matter.
